The abolitionist movement was met with much backlash. So much so, that it was a major cause of the civil war. Slave owners refused to aknowledge African American citizens as equals. They believed they were inferior in every way. To them, African American’s were dumber and less advanced. The false idea that they were more closely related to apes due to their skin color was used in many arguments. Another major ideal used to support slavery was the impact it had on the economy. The creation of cheaper products due to unpaid laborers greatly contributed to the economy in those times. Most of these assertions  were only filled by racism and insecurity from the slave owners part, while some like the impact in the economy were morally and ethically incorrect.

Answer:

For the Aztecs, the enviroment was more benevolent. The aztecs inhabited Central Mexico which is a highland area where temperatures are mild. Soils are also very fertile because they are volcanic. The biggest challenge they had to face was precisely the active volcanoes that sorround the Central Valley of Mexico.

For the Mayans, the enviroment was more unforgiving. They inhabited a lowland tropical jungle with high humidity and temperatures all-year round. The soils were not very fertile either.

It has been theorized that the Mayan civilization disappeared because of deforestation, which led to a rise of temperatures and a general worsening of enviromental conditions.
